The West Coast Soccer Association is proud to announce the Men's Team of Utah Valley Univeristy as WCSA Team of the Week.

The UVU Men’s Club Team opened up their season home opener against the University of Utah under the lights iwith a 3-0 win. It was a solid performance both defensively and offensively for the Wolverines (3-0-1). The scoring opened for UVU in the 17th minute off a through ball from Chris Reyes to forward Jake McRae. McRae took advantage of the opportunity and buried the ball into the side of the net. Later in the first half midfielder, Kolten Hyatt, connected with Chris Reyes who slotted it into the corner putting the Wolverines up 2-0. The University of Utah had their chances as well, but the Wolverines defense led by goalie, Ethan Cash, were able to stop the attacks.

Towards the end of regulation, Dayvin Palmer put away their 3rd goal off a nice combination of passes. “This is a great team to be a part of. In selecting the team, we weren’t looking for the best players, we were looking for the right ones.” UVU’s new head coach, Jared Vogelsberg said. “We’re happy about the result, but we’re hungry to improve from here.” UVU’s next match takes them to Weber State University this Friday 9/14 7 pm.
